(A Red Dead Redemption Story) Colt Hudson grew up on a ranch in New Hanover not far from towns like Valentine and Emerald Ranch. There he lived with his parents, brother and grandfather, living off the land and working for his farm. After discovering his fathers past of being an outlaw, Colt helps and joins his fathers gang. Things go on for a while until Colt's father's gang thinks he and his father betrayed them. The gang then captures the two and holds Colt down as they shoot and kill Colt's father. Colt is then kicked out of the gang and forced to live on his own due to his mother not approving of his outlaw ways. After taking up a job bartending at the Blackwater Saloon he meets a man who claims he's a conman and a gentleman. After getting to know eachother over several different nights the man invites Colt to meet his partner. Colt immediately connects with both of the men so they invite him to join their gang. Those men were Hosea Matthews and Dutch Van Der Linde.

Life was a party for Ace. He liked to drink, play poker, have fun, and yeah, spend some time with payed, willing ladies at the brothel. Born the youngest son in the Anderson family, Ace had never had a whole lot of responsibility put on him but he was always there when his help was needed around the ranch. He was sure his carefree outlook on life would never change... until a skinny little twit in fancy dress calls him an ignorant drunkard. Penny had lived a hard life. A life that had taught her to be cold and put on airs in order to avoid the hurt. She was lonely, alone, and suddenly being forced by her parents to move out to the middle of nowhere Texas to live on a ranch where she knew no one except her sister who had married the oldest son of the Anderson family--worst of all she had been sent out here to marry a man named Gregory who didn't seem the least bit interested. She finds herself finding most of the family to be decent enough... all except the youngest son. Immediately sparks fly between Ace and Penny--the kind of sparks that have them yelling, fighting, arguing and leaving destruction in their wake. Can Penny somehow find happiness on a ranch so far from home? And what will happen her life is suddenly threatened? Can Ace convince the woman that he's not just and ignorant drunk? And can he save her life? You never know what the outcome will be when aces are wild.

Katie's life is a battle to keep herself alive and fed. Living alone outside a small mining town she finds herself drawn to the rugged Sheriff who is partly responsible for her situation.
